“There was no national policy that said animals matter.” Michael Markarian

I’ve been in some pretty horrendous driving situations.

None, so far, have compared in any way to the absolute madhouse that is my daughter’s junior high parking lot after school.

Much like an anthill of angry ants, it is absolute bedlam. As if in an alternate dimension, vehicle safety laws no longer apply. The parking lines, pedestrian crosswalk paint, buildings, cement barriers, children are all fair game for moving vehicles.

I not only double and triple check before I move in ANY direction, I triple and quadruple check before I move again.

I’ve never seen it this bad. Ever. In my entire 21 years. Okay, okay…it’s longer than 21 years.
